Beautiful work mate!! Love the NMF!

[nmayhew]

never got on with alclad - but i was trying to paint masks on top and found it rubbish for that (gunze paints are gargantuan in ability to resist peel off by comparison...), but that's probably just me

 

your effects are very impressive!

 

quick question on hairspray chipping:

so you spray hairspray on, then how long until you sprayed the green on top...and then how long until you 'chipped'?

 

really liking this model and can't wait to see more

Hi Nick,

 

I've tried AK chipping medium but found the effects too subtle.

 

So what i do now is:

Spray a gloss black base

Spray alclad

Spray cheap hairspray directly in my airbrush cup

Spray the hairspray on my model

use hairdryer. And wait 5 minutes.

Spray color.

use hairdryer. And wait 5 minutes.

Start chipping with flat brush and water...

I sprayed hairspray directly on one of my models. Worked great. I had to steal from Shirley. I don't have hair.

[JeroenPeters]

I just find i have more control when i shoot from the airbrush. I also like the finish better.

 

Here's to the last few bits 'n' bobs.

Scratched the rearview mirrors that go in the canopy bulges.

I'm with you. I try to air on everything possible. There are people who can hand brush a flawless finish. I am not part of that group. Almost there Jeroen.
